God, what a depressing article!
“Even more frightening are the thousands in our society — journalists, politicians, academics, activists — who get up each morning more concerned about the fleeing driver who destroys power and vines than the victims who pay for the carnage…”
Exactly. The law-abiding are left to pick up the tab and the law-abiding are the first to be harassed by bureaucrats who have made this situation possible.
No, this little town we live in isn’t like that yet. We have no crime, no graffiti, no mobs of yoofs wandering the streets at night. And when we go shopping the car is left with the engine running outside the shop so the aircon keeps it cool, along with other people doing the same.
There was, apparently, one family with criminal kids a while ago, but they were put under so much pressure by the locals they left town.

That article hits home,last year I had an antique Corn Sheller stolen off my parents old homestead.I was going to restore it,Thing was probably 120 years old,all cast iron,large curved spoke flywheels it had survived all that time without a single broken piece.The folks who made it where craftsmen who cared about detail and quality even on such a common item.

Gone in an instant,probably to come back as a piece of Chinese garbage at the dollar store.The meth heads that stole it probably didn’t get $5 for it.
What really pisses me off is,all of the theft around here occurs when folks like myself are busy at work.Of course if I had been home the two thieves would have been found dead a short distance from where they dropped it.
My lefty liberal neighbor was shocked and appalled by my feeling towards the thieves.”You mean you would really shoot them and take their lives over property,what gives you the right?”

My response was “yes,dammit,they are busy taking my life one piece at a time after all,what gives them the right”

Probably some of her f–king kids that stole it

I’ve said it before we need to start punishing criminals again.We have a landfill problem here in the states,EPA says we can’t burn garbage to make power anymore,so we bury it to pollute the ground water instead :roll
My solution to this pollution is to take our juvenille offenders and chain them to a conveyor belt so they can sort the garbage by hand thereby reducing the landfill volume.I figure it would be better for the environment and after the 30,000th rotten baby diaper they’re attitudes might change. :rant

Damn right. Something that’s often overlooked is that people who refuse to work and steal from the productive – and governments who steal from the productive in order to fund welfare for lowlifes – are in fact stealing hours and days of our lives.
So lethal force used to protect property is the civilized thing to do, within the real meaning of the word “civilized”.

The Sheriff will get little support from Republican leaders:
‘Republican “leaders”–this Administration’s allies.
‘Hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt? Not so fast, says House Republican leadership. Speaker John Boehner of Ohio, Majority Leader Eric Cantor of Virginia and Majority Whip Kevin McCarthy of California have decided to slow Rep. Darrell Issa’s drive to hold the attorney general in contempt over the controversial Fast and Furious program, a move that could infuriate conservatives who have been calling for Holder’s resignation…’http://www.politico.com/news/stories/0512/76135.html

Collaborators,there was just a live focus group poll of dems and repubs and going after Holder polled 80% favorable in both groups.
I hate to tell these idiots,but a US Border agent and hundreds of Mexican officials deaths from this stupidity is a valid issue in an election year.Holder not being punished is just another example in the minds of many of deep seated injustice.

There’s no question in my mind that this Administration’s grab for power and general corruption meets with the approval of Republican leaders. The power grabbed will be used by them when their turn comes.
They will never, NEVER turn back federal powers.

Yep for sure, Inv has an infestation and he’s too much of a gentleman to call the exterminators. Still. It gives somewhere to toy with them without having to completely abandon principle and go to Farrar’s!

I occasionally visit other blogs and have a bit of a stoush here ‘n there, but lately I’ve decided it’s not worth it – it’s like boxing with shadows (without any rules); they’re not even capable of actually READING what I write .

1. ‘President Barack Obama’s popularity among women, minorities and independents is giving him an early edge over his likely Republican rival, Mitt Romney, according to a new Associated Press-GfK poll.’Which demonstrates yet again that most women and “minorities” can’t be trusted to look at the facts before voting.
2. Bullshit the NZ public will swallow:
‘Sea level rises will accelerate in future – expert’http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=10805002

The Free World is in deep shit (pun intended) and its leader is concerning himself with the rights of men playing mummies and daddies and husbands and wives with each others dicks. I must be really thick because I can’t imagine why. :popcorn Really.

OK Mara, I’ll bite.
I knew a guy who had a string of girlfriends, got married, had 4 daughters, got divorced, another string of girlfriends and then one day, in his mid-fifties met another ostensibly heterosexual man, married with kids, etc. and suddenly they were a couple. Unfortunately it all ended badly with a suicide of his partner. So he started dating all the queens around. Anyway the point of the story is that one day he said to me that the sex life in the gay community was absolutely fantastic – no hang-ups, no pretences of not behind cheap, no worries about what a person felt the next day – just plenty of fantastic erotic sex…….maybe there is a lesson there.

It sounds wonderful……except for HIV, etc. and the fact that I have this thing about women. Mmmmmnnnn…… :whoop :whoop :whoop
mawm

Trevor Loudon does a fantastic job of exposing the links between the DhimmiCunt Party and communists in the US, and has recently had a series on how Dem agents perpetrate massive voter fraud (well worth a read).

In a classic two-pronged attack, the Minions of the Chocolate Messiah now control who votes (and how many times), and also who counts the votes…

Anonymous, that guy you knew and the hot, free sex etc … he had a point of course. Most of the gays I’ve met said much the same. One memorable character, nice bloke, liked rough sex and was hospitalised a few times as a result. Another long term devoted couple, good mates I’ve known for yonks, are just the opposite. But none of these men, from memory, have any desire to “marry’. The call for it is coming from a small, very vocal minority. Also, now that HIV/AIDS is not considered life threatening any more, the action is heating up again. “Homophobia” is up there with “racism” as the worst possible human behaviours: it’s no wonder that the PC brigade is currently wetting its panties in the rush for gay “marriage” and the liberals are falling for it. Sigh.

Leftists/”progressives”/socialists are not welcome here. Pay for your own soapbox.
